This week’s Fan Of… Lensy’s view of the Falkirk Wheel.
These first two shots were taken at the lock entrance to the wheel basin, & the wheel in the background looks like a giant bird head.

This week’s Fan Of… is the Falkirk Wheel. The Falkirk Wheel (? click here for more info) is a rotating boat lift that moves canal boats up & down between the Forth & Clyde and Union Canals.

This week’s Fan Of… is the Kelpies as seen by Lensy.
This Fan Of... post follows on from last weeks Fan Of… #111 about The Kelpies (? click here for more info). So far, I haven’t seen many other lensball shots of the Kelpies & thought they would lend themselves to this style of photography.

This week’s Fan Of… The Kelpies.
The Kelpies (? click here for more info) are the largest equine sculptures in the world & are modelled on two workhorses of times gone by, Duke & Baron, representing the lineage of the heavy horse that were key to Scotland’s industrial success. The Kelpies sit at the eastern end of the Forth & Clyde Canal & are well worth a visit if you are ever in the area.

This week’s Fan Of… celebrating another anniversary with my awesome wife, Susan (? click to check out her site) — Happy Anniversary, Sweetie
We’ve been together 24 years now, & married 18. We don’t have a car through choice & so have recently been saving like mad to get ourselves a couple of long-distance e-bikes. They arrived just over a week ago, in time for our latest anniversary, & the adventures have already started. We will be using the local canal paths to get around & explore as many of the local attractions as possible by bike.

This week’s Fan Of… is down at the Canal.
A couple of wweks back saw a bright, almost cloudless morning & too good of a chance to pass up to visit the Forth & Clyde Canal. These following shots were taken down at Lock 20, nr Banknock.

This week’s Fan Of… is a dawn walk with Lensy.
Nearing the end of my walk with Lensy, the path goes into some woodland. Near the start were a couple of decent stumps with good lighting which was too good an opportunity to pass up.

Following on from last weeks post featuring Fannyside Lochs, I’m now heading back through the park, snapping away happily as I go.

This week’s Fan Of… is a dawn walk with Lensy.
Owing to lockdown restrictions & a high workload, I haven’t been out with Snappy (DSLR) & Lensy (lensball) since my visit to Palacrigg Country Park on New Years Day. I got the chance to get out last week & was up at Fannyside Lochs, within Palacerigg Country Park for sunrise. I took full advantage of clear conditions & plenty of posts & stumps to put Lensy on & took about 250 shots in total (don’t worry, they’re not all with lensy). I started up at the Lochs & then followed numerous trails back towards home. I’ve split up the walk into 3 distinct phases: Fannyside Lochs (today’s post), walking through the park (pt 2) & some woodland pics (pt 3).
